hi all for anyone that has built/assembled the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub that I reviewed last year if you have used the Stock tank that is in the kit and are running the Evolution 15GT engine please check the fuel tank and carburettor it appears the tank Bung supplied with the kit is not suitable for petrol the one in my old Cub has disintegrated in the fuel and was slowly but surely filling the carburettor up with gunk. That's a fair oversight given that the model was marketed as a petrol model !!!!!

I used to fly mine on a Zenoah zg26 so I think 55cc is a bit if overkill personally

If you head on down to the Southern Model Show at Headcorn aerodrome in September you will get another chance to see Mike and Chris in action!!

hi BBC i have hypo-thyroid it can be a sole destroying illness and from the outset it looks like there's nothing wrong with you. mine came to light from a sudden gain in weight that was not related to the amount i eat. i look like I've been a salad dodger all my life BUT i'm not a huge eater and i ear relatively healthily but the hypothyroid is the root of the problem. there is lots of information availiable on the internet about the problem i would if i were you spend a little time researching. the majority of the research is done in the USA and they seem to have a better handle on the illness that the NHS who will look for the cheapest option for treatment and tend to treat the illness and NOT the patient. my advice is keep on it and be a pain to the Dr it seems to take a fair bit of pressure to get them to move on everything. I have even been to see the endochronologist he was reasonable but none will take the bull by the horns and they all seem to steer away from expensive treatments some of which are better than the generic treatment given by the NHS steve Edited By Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator on 26/04/2013 21:48:39

it was probably a sniping engine that done it !!

it certainly looked blissfully underpowered unless the props were particularly low in pitch. i would certainly have aborted.......that said it looked superb

Posted by David Ashby - RCME on 30/01/2013 13:25:52: The Seagull video must be one of the worst promotional videos of all time - a sweet looking little racer (one of Seagulls new models for 2013) but, well, you don't need me to tell you how bad the vid is and planting the model in the trees at the end had me nearly falling off the chair in disbelief! Really makes you want to get straight out and buy one does'nt it

apparently they are the same manufacturer/factory as the Goldwing RC models that Kings Lynn models supply. may be worth a phone call to them nasa

please gimme a new hat David you know you want to!!!!!

Hi guys As far as I'm aware Nigel no longer kits these models so it would be down to you to get a plan and cut one yourself. I'm pretty sure the Wizza was 2005 if I remember correctly steve

Thanks Andrew hi Andrew 3 of my models have Eneloop 2 have 4 cell and one a 5cell packe all three models have at least 4 servos each one funfighter a 60 sized model and one 90 sized model, although that said the 90 is a Seagull Navion which has 7 standard servos three of which are digital two metal geared and one cheapy standard on the throttle. the 60 sized model is an Sbach with digitals all round and is powered by an Eflite Power 60 electric on 6 s lipo. On average i would possibly get 4 flights on each in a session. incidentally i would'nt even consider flying anything larger on AA cells and all of my bigger models are sporting sub c receiver packs right up to a 50cc petrol model. my general rule of thumb is if its 120 classed or above then its sub C's or decent li-po with a regulator/u-bec nasa

ive been using Eneloop and Overlanders equivilant for a while now with absolutely no ill effects nasa.
